Climate change is rapidly affecting the marine ecosystem. Fisheries are seeing the impact of rapid warming, marine heat waves, and extreme events. Changing water temperatures impacts fish distribution with warm water species appearing in what were more temperate waters. More frequent storms reduce the time that fishers can spend at sea.
Stakeholders want to know not only how climate change will impact their industry but how they can adapt. How can fishers and scientists work together to adapt to future challenges?
